About the Northeastern Permaculture Network's wiki - have you considered having your own pages on a larger wiki? Our thinking at Appropedia is that we benefit from synergy when we join together. We're developing ways of maintaining "branding", helping organizations to maintain their identity while still being in the midst of an active community.
Hope to hear from you!
